Abstract
Modern organizations assert that cynicism and organizational design provide advantages for knowledge-intensive settings. However, organizational crises may lead to resource shortages, prompting increased knowledge hiding (KH) among workers for competitive edge. Therefore, current study aims to examine the influence of organizational design and cynicism on job performance with organizational justice and KH through the moderating effect of servant leadership. Convenience sampling technique was used for data collection from 730 manufacturing organization employees via a survey questionnaire and data were analyzed with AMOS (28.0). Findings showed that KH's behavior negatively influenced by organizational design and positively influenced by cynicism. The current study also validates that higher management needs to practice advanced organizational justice to improve performance that drastically generates justice practices and reduces KH within the firms. Moreover, deploying servant leadership helps to control the cynicism, and employees start practicing knowledge-sharing behavior that significantly contributes to the performance.
